Yan Ning is the most honored princess of the Great Yong. Spoiled by her father, she acts with reckless arrogance and does whatever she pleases.
After her father’s death, a wicked woman takes power, the new emperor proves incompetent, and the court officials are useless.
To save the state, Yan Ning is forced into a distant marriage. From then on, the mountains and rivers shine beneath the moon, but her days are devoid of joy.
Until fires rage across the land and Great Yong’s army is routed. Yan Ning gives her life to win Great Yong one last chance.
When she wakes again, she is still the pampered princess born to nobility.
Only this time...
Sword in hand and smiling brightly, Yan Ning fixes her gaze on the ministers who once defied her.
“Why should the realm distinguish between men and women? The throne belongs to whoever is capable. Do you accept that?”
